This form of denial involves avoiding personal responsibility by: blaming - a direct statement shifting culpability and may overlap with denial of fact minimizing - an attempt to make the effects or results of an action appear to be less harmful than they may actually be, or justifying - when someone takes a choice and attempts to make that choice look okay due to their perception of what is "right" in a situation. Someone using denial of responsibility is usually attempting to avoid potential harm or pain by shifting attention away from themselves.
